View submission: Question about naming a writing system

I believe 'Moreu Nuye' would just mean emroidery. Is that what you want to call it?

'Nuye' has a broad meaning like 'to mark' or maybe 'to score'. It can mean to carve or to write. It can mean to tattoo as well.

'Moreu' refers to the famous Ainu embroidery.

Thanks so much for the response. Do you know if there's an Ainu word that would mean writing more definitively or a word that means script?
